Mastering Notes:
This super clean recording sounds and feels like it did back in '80s. The show with recorded using an 8â€™ mic-stand that was placed 12' left of center from the middle of Healyâ€™s Board facility.  Thus, this recording has great vocal quality, a thick/bold bass sound and good signal separation on both channels.

(a) Set I had a couple of sound quality issues found in 'Brother Esau' (i.e., a saturated bass problem associated with too high recording levels at the beginning of this song; and, it also had a very minor, 12 second, low volume problem that occurs within the first minute of track #1, 'The Music Never Stops'; and

(b) The final FLAC recording used a different version of â€˜Big Railroad Bluesâ€™ and â€˜Beat It On Down The Lineâ€™.  When the tape was flipped during the first set these 2 tracks were recorded over with the next song in the Set....'Tennessee Jed'. These tracks where added from Hunter Trix Vol.112 SBD/MTX recording to full-out the show's actual play list (Hunter's MTX recording can be found at https://archive.org/details/gd1983-09-10.139379.mtx.seamons.ht112.flac16).

All editing was performed to ensure the highest sound compatibility between each version of the show (i.e., without any noticeable loss of listening "enjoyablity").
